I'd say (but it is a guess), that your keyboard is operative system-based. Being French, your native keyboard is AZERTY, but I think you can set, as a user, your keyboard layout as a QWERTY one, can't you?

i know this but my issue is software side

its like indesign / photoshop / illustrator even in english keep the azerty layout shortcut

even if i switch my keyboard and set up in us

by exemple in indesign the shortcut for bring an object top or bottom the layer doesnt work

my issue would be resolve if someone send me a defaut keyboard layout from us international installation

like indesign/shortcut pref / save defaut us in a file

I have saved a copy of Keyboard Shortcut Settings file on https://adobe.ly/2X7O3vi

You can download it and move it to the below location in windows:
C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version 15.0\en_US\InDesign Shortcut Sets

Once done, launch InDesign and From Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, select the new "Qwerty" as default set.

Let us know if it helps.
